The Golden Thread (First Edition)
£9.99
A true story of fear, forgiveness and faith...
HONEST, INSPIRING, THOUGHT-PROVOKING, BIOGRAPHICAL:
Our lives are like a complex tapestry, with many threads weaving each of our unique and individual pictures. There is, however, one thing that we all have in common, one thread. The GOLDEN THREAD is God’s thread in our lives. It is always there, even when we feel that it isn’t. Just turn your tapestry over and you will see it continuing on the back. Always there! The GOLDEN THREAD.
This book is the true story of one man’s GOLDEN THREAD in his life. Brendan Conboy grew up in fear and confusion, struggling with many personal issues. These experiences formed a foundation that could have ended in disaster but instead became the motivator to want to make a positive difference. Brendan has experienced miracles, real miracles. He has walked through the valley of depression and death more than once, but emerged stronger on the other side. For almost 30 years he has been full of vision and passion to help young people. That’s why he became a youth worker and one of the most important lessons that he has learnt on his journey is that we need to share our knowledge and skill with others.
I'm Still VALUED - You're still valued
£9.99
Brendan Conboy published his biography, ‘The Golden Thread’ in 2015. This is his continuing story and is an example of how God can still use us regardless of our weaknesses, disabilities, age and infirmities.

The Psalms are so powerful. They were written to be sung or read out aloud. This rhyming version is a joy to hear and it was such a blessing to work on. My prayer is that it is also a great blessing, to all that read and hear it - Brendan Conboy.
ONE GOD many names
£11.99
Meditate on the many names, marvel at the way we gain...
As Christians, we have a relationship with God and we should desire for that relationship to grow closer. One way to do that is of course to read the Bible, but where do you start. Brendan Conboy decided to read, meditate on and dig deeper into the names of God and in this book he shares some of his thoughts, explanations and relevant stories.
Pick a name, any name, there is power in that name. When we meditate on the many names of God, something powerful can happen to us. When we find out what some of these names mean they can have a transformational impact on our lives. As you slowly make your way through these many names and titles, pause at each of them. Take time to reflect and record your own thoughts and be ready for God to speak to you.
The true stories contained within this book are inspirational. Brendan hopes that by sharing them in relation to the names of God, that you will develop a closer relationship with the ONE GOD, with many names.

LEGACY of the Mimics: For Honour, Truth & Justice
£9.99
GRIPPING - SUPERNATURAL - CHRISTIAN FANTASY - DYSTOPIAN - SCIFI
Sequel to Invasion of the Mimics
After the victory comes celebration
After the celebration comes something else!
24 year old, Ashia had eventually found happiness, though at a very high cost. She pinched herself to check that it wasn’t a dream, then relaxed. Her eyes told her everything was calm, as it should be. Her eyes deceived her. Her mind sensed something else. She heard a familiar voice inside her mind.
The voice told her to look beyond…
To seek her destiny as the ‘Shison’…
Beyond the void…
A perilous quest of danger, discovery and deliverance. A story where two periods of time and three worlds collide. In a not too future world, the fate of mankind has never been more threatened. The answer lies in one young woman, some long-lost ancient Samurai relics and sacrifice - Who will pay the price?
Invasion of the MIMICS - Dystopian, Sci-fi, Fantasy
£9.99
They're already here... Invading your country… Dwelling in your home… Living in your body!
SCI-FI, DYSTOPIAN, SUPERNATURAL, GRIPPING THRILLER:
Based around climate change and an alien invasion... Oh, and a large dose of supernatural for good measure.
Climate change had been predicted long ago, but not one person could foresee the events that had unfolded. Humanity is defeated, civilization lost, all hope has gone. Enlightenment is the new belief, but there are those that refuse to believe. There is an alternative and Gideon knows it. He has to find ‘Trenchard’ if he has any chance of participating in the greatest battle of his life - The battle for mankind.
Something was growing inside of him. It was a deep sensation. He couldn’t explain it, but he had become aware of a presence stirring within, gnawing away and convicting him, encouraging him to press on toward his goal. The goal to survive, escape and find Trenchant. It was the power that brought clarity to his mind, it filled his heart with hope and vision. It was supernatural and although he couldn’t fully understand, appreciate or explain it, he knew that he wanted and needed much more.
The Gift - a poetic journey
£11.99
I have called this collection of poetry, The Gift because writing words in rhyme is a gift that God gave to me back in 1986. Until then, I had absolutely no interest in any poetry. I received this gift in a prayer meeting and my head started filling with rhyming words. It was a rap song, called Christmas Unwrapped. At first, I didn’t know where the words were coming from, as I had only recently invited God into my life. I soon realised that this is the way that God chooses to speak to me and who am I to argue with Him?
God gave me such a special gift and at first, I used it as a Christian Rap Artist. I did that for 25 years performing in local schools and events. It wasn’t until November 2020 that I published my first poetry book, Rhyme Time. Since then, I have published three more, Popcorn Poetry (Aug-22), Half Man Half Poet (Apr-23) and The End is not The End (Jul-23). This book, The Gift, is a bumper collection of many of the poems from each of these four books.
I do hope that this book will serve as more than a book, more than a poetry collection and that it will be a gift to you and all who read it.

As a former Christian Rap Artist, now a Poet and Spoken Word Artist, Brendan says, "Words are powerful, words have the power to transform lives."
The concept of Popcorn Poetry is simple, popcorn is made for sharing, just like the rhymes in this book - read them out loud and share them with friends. The concept is explained more in the title poem, which can be found below.
This collection of poems is honest and personal, with themes that are serious and ludicrous. Everyone has a favourite, please mention yours in your review of the book. Popcorn Poetry has been endorsed by renowned writer and spoken word performer, Jude Simpson.
"From light-hearted to deeply heartfelt, these rhymes are rooted in Brendan’s own life experience. He speaks from a place of both joy and pain, communicating a very real faith. Brendan’s words are written primarily for performance, and there’s a real spoken quality to these poems. His gutsy and authentic motivation shines through, with messages of hope for the reader." - Jude Simpson
Now, have a taste of Popcorn Poetry.
Popcorn Poetry
Why call this book, Popcorn Poetry?
There really is much similarity
Between poetry and popcorn
Give heat to the corn and it transforms
Poetic words inside your brain,
can also do the same
They hit the spot, your brain goes pop
You’re never the same again
I open my mouth, a poem pops out
In the time that it takes to pop corn
Words can make you feel reborn
Turn up the heat and corn will change.
Isn’t it remarkable?
Poetic words, thoughts rearrange.
It really is a miracle
God gives me words so lyrical
Do you think that is hysterical?
It’s true, my message is for you all
Just like popcorn, you’ll want some more
Not all will be your flavour of choice
But hear the message in my voice
Toffee, caramel, salt and sweet
Every word a special treat
God told me what to speak
Chocolate-coated popcorn is my favourite flavour
It really is the one to savour
But popcorn will not change behaviour
Poetic words can transform your mind
The message within now you must find
Open your mind - don’t stay blind
Popcorn can’t do that, not any kind
Half Man Half Poet: An enzyme of rhyme designed for this time
£6.99
This is not just another poetry book, it is a book of comments, observations and of course, messages. When God keeps pouring words into Brendan Conboy's head, what else is he supposed to do to do? These poems are bursting with rhythm and rhyme and the need to be spoken out (if you are brave enough).
This book looks at four main themes.
1. Life observation 2. Social issues 3. Health 4. Christian
Why is it called 'Half Man Half Poet'? Let the title poem explain...
Half Man - Half Poet
I’m half the man I used to be
And half the poet I’d like to be
My body has declined
But my mind has refined
It’s just the way I was designed
So, I get in the game
I don’t complain
I don’t want fame
Want to tell you about Jesus’ name
He speaks to me in poetry
But words just can’t explain
The way I feel, I know that God is real
So, I rhyme in time again and again and again
The words keep coming filling my head
The day they stop is the day I’m dead
Since the day I crossed the line
He speaks to me in rhyme
It happens all the time
Even though I’m half the man I used to be
God sees my reverence,
obedience and common sense
And He says – “I haven’t finished with you yet
Just sow the seeds and forget,
how you used to look
I’ll give you words to fill a book, again and again
Much more than ten
You’re not the man you used to be
You are the poet that I set free
I need you for this deed, to plant the seed
So, those in need can see
Why I did bleed”
I don’t ignore the more and more words in store
I speak out for the poor
Then God says,
“You’re not the man you used to be
This is the score
You have answered the call
I have made you more”
